Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Good morning, everyone. It is a pleasure for us to have you here today.
Mr. Minister, I have five minutes and two questions to ask you.
We studied Mercosur and the Pacific Alliance. We met with several witnesses. Earlier, you mentioned that you wanted the Mercosur agreement to become the benchmark for potential agreements throughout South America. What does this mean for you?
You talked about a progressive trade agenda. I'd like to hear more about that. Knowing that there is currently some political instability in South America, I would like to know what effect this may have on the negotiations.
